Warnings -- Again!!
Once again I remind us all to be aware -- beware!
This morning, 3/26/2015, I got a call from a phony pretending to be from Microsoft or working with Microsoft to "fix the problems found on my computer".
THIS IS TOTALLY PHONEY!!!
Microsoft has no such program and does not know anything about your computer except the Product Keys os your Microsoft products and the CPU serial number of your computer if you run Windows. And they don't much care, either.
When you get such a call, either hang up or tell them you will report them to your state attorney general and your law enforcement people (sheriff, police, etc.). Then HANG UP!
I also got another alert that malware is injecting itself into your computer via a thing called router hijaaking. Here is a link that describes it. Possible prevention: ensure that your "firmware" on the router is up to date. This is a nasty one and you really, really need to stay alert.

As always, leave a comment if you have information we would be interested in knowing.
